The fixes came from upstream indeed. They are fixes that were committed from about March 10th to April 7th (i.e., from the 2.22.00 release to 2.22.1). Additionally, the Ubuntu 2.22.1 change logs ([1], [2], and [3]) list the bugzilla fixes included on 2.22.1. The Ubuntu/Debian specific fixes are listed in the source packages, under ./debian/patches; a quick look there did not show me anything we added off upstream that would address the memory corruption, etc. > I'm not ready to call it fixed quite yet, but if you haven't updated > lately you should do so, then see if things are any better for you. Anyway, of course, for Ubuntu we do recommend you run the up-to-date versions -- remember we are still beta on Hardy 8.04. I have been busy lately but, to my (dim) remembering, the only critical issue we still have left on Evo for Hardy is the E-D-S loop on startup ([4] for Ubuntu, [5] for bugzilla). Regards, ..hggdh..
